The Problem

The Clearing Account Problem

Shopify batches gross sales, fees, and refunds into net payouts that arrive in the bank days later. Standard integrations push the micro-transactions into the ledger, but fail to tie them cleanly to the final deposit.

The result: clearing accounts fill with unmatched data, the ledger drifts from cash reality, and your team spends hours in spreadsheets trying to force the month-end close.

The problem is not that money is missing. The problem is that certainty is missing.

What We Do

This Is Not Another Sync Tool

We do not connect to Shopify, to the bank, or to the accounting software. We work from the raw source files independently, so the result is not influenced by existing ledger errors, broken integrations, or misconfigured sync tools.

Exact rules, not AI estimation.
Our reconciliation workflow uses exact matching logic with documented reasoning. No pattern guessing. No opaque algorithms. The same files will always produce the same result.
Major bank exports supported.
If we have not processed a specific bank format before, we build support as part of the engagement.
How It Works
1
Secure Intake
Upload the raw Shopify payout CSV and bank statement export. No accounting software access needed.
2
Exact Matching
We reconstruct the payout logic and compare it to the bank using exact rules. This shows what matched, why it matched, and what still needs attention.
3
Evidence Pack
We return a structured Settlement Audit Evidence Pack within the agreed turnaround, ready for your team to act on.
What You Receive

The Settlement Audit Evidence Pack

Each review produces a structured evidence pack containing:

  • Explained matching with review priority. Every payout matched against the bank includes a confidence level and the reason for that level. Your team can see which items are safe to rely on and which ones need professional review.
  • Exception isolation. Unmatched payouts, unmatched deposits, timing anomalies, and negative net periods are clearly separated, so your team reviews only the items that need attention.
  • Fee and reserve visibility. Platform fees, refunds, chargebacks, and reserve holds are broken out individually.
  • Date range coverage. The pack confirms whether the bank statement covers the full payout period and flags any gaps.

Whether the result confirms the settlement chain is sound or isolates specific exceptions, you receive documented certainty rather than spreadsheet guesswork.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you need access to QuickBooks or Xero?
No. The settlement review works from two raw export files only: the Shopify payout CSV and the bank statement. No accounting software access is requested or required.
Which banks do you support?
We support major UK and US bank statement exports. If we have not processed a specific bank format before, we build support as part of the engagement.
Is this another sync app or integration tool?
No. We do not connect to Shopify, to the bank, or to the accounting software. We work from the raw source files independently, so the result is not influenced by existing ledger errors or integration misconfigurations.
What happens after I submit the form?
We review your enquiry and confirm eligibility within 2 business days. If the case fits our current review scope, we will contact you with next steps including file requirements and scheduling.

Data Handling

How We Handle Your Data

  • No accounting software access required for the initial review. Two source files only: Shopify payout export and bank statement.
  • Files are transmitted via TLS encryption. No password or ZIP required.
  • Processing takes place in a controlled, encrypted local environment. We do not store client data in cloud databases.
  • Raw exports are purged within 48 hours of report delivery by default.
  • Our reconciliation workflow uses exact rules with documented logic. Where the data does not support a clean conclusion, the item is isolated for review rather than forced.
